Adding info on JDM cars[edit]

Do u mind if I add some info on JDM as well as European Camrys?? Would u mind me putting it as a subsection within each generation??

I don't want to make it seem like permission is required—but, I have absolutely no objection to inclusion of Euro/JDM information in the article. I encourage it, and I'm looking forward to reading about cars that I don't see every day. --Milkmandan 02:08, 2005 Apr 17 (UTC)

I asked cos the article is already very impressive, & I'm sure u've spent a lot of time on it, including the layout design. The Camry has a complicated model branchline (as most Japanese cars in the 70/80/90's do), so it would be very easy to make the article hard to read by not giving thought to the article's layout, as there are a lot of extra info.

years, and engines missed[edit]

i was looking through the Camry section, and found that you forgot the 1992-1993 V6 motor. it was the 3.0L 4 cam 3VZ-FE. Also the third generation was from 1992-1996.

(this was on the right hand column)

Wrong Transmission Descriptions[edit]

The A140E is a four speed (three speed + overdrive), just like the A540's and A541s

Kanye West[edit]

Moved this in from the article, doesn't make much sense to me: "Toyota Camry is mention alot when rapper Kanye West Raps in DJ Khaled Grammy Family"

miles per gallon?[edit]

I think this article, and indeed all articles about various makes of automobiles, should include information about miles per gallon. It could go in the little "stat" box on the right, even.

I suggest this because that is why *I* looked this article up, but was not able to find the information. Mpg is increasingly becoming a bigger and bigger concern for drivers.

India production[edit]

Gonna leave these links here:

There are further search hits for relevant terms.

That tells us about India sales but says nothing about India production.  Stepho  talk  20:57, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

2023/2024 facelifts vs new generations[edit]

Does anybody know (and I mean really know, not just guessing) if the Camry being released in Nov 2023 is a face-lift or a new generation? Same question for Nov 2024. A face-lift will continue the XU70 model code. A new generation will have a new model code (presumably XU80 but Toyota do like to break their own pattern). From recent press teases, I'm not quite clear if they are representing the the same vehicle release or teasing 2 separate releases a year apart.  Stepho  talk  06:40, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change.org petition[edit]

Anonymous users—who I suspect are sockpuppets of the same person, based on their awkward grammar—have repeatedly added information to the XV80 section about a a change.org petition that has, as I write this, gathered about 200 signatures (about one signature per 41 million residents of the planet, so it's not exactly a mass movement). Can we build consensus that this information is non-encyclopedic WP:CRUFT that is inappropriate to add to this article per WP:UGC and WP:NOTEVERYTHING? I can envision Wikipedia automotive articles drowning in trivial or puerile online petitions if this sort of thing is allowed to stand. Carguychris (talk) 21:59, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, it is cruft. With such a small number of signatures compared to the cost of developing that engine to meet emission laws and the cost of certifying it (a non-trivial amount), Toyota is almost certainly going to ignore it.  Stepho  talk  22:19, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
